OH HCR63

Repudiates Connecticut's claim that Gustave Whitehead successfully flew a powered, heavier-than-air machine on August 14, 1901, or any other date.

References Connecticut law signed June 26, 2013, that replaced the Wright brothers with Whitehead on Connecticut's Powered Flight Day without providing evidence of Whitehead's successful flight.

States that scholarly research by credentialed historians has found no evidence to support Whitehead's claims and that the only purported photograph shows only indistinct shapes.

Affirms that the Wright brothers of Dayton, Ohio built the first powered airplane and made their first flight on December 17, 1903, at Kitty Hawk, North Carolina.

Invites Connecticut citizens to visit the Wright Brothers National Memorial in North Carolina and aviation heritage sites in Ohio to learn the factual history of powered flight invention.
